HC Deb 29 October 1992 vol 212 cc784-5W
Mr. Bowis

To ask the President of the Board of Trade if he will introduce legislation to clarify the application of article 13a(1)(a) of the EC sixth VAT directive to private and privatised postal services; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Leigh

[holding answer 28 October 1992]: It is not apparent that such legislation is necessary. If required, it would be a matter for my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
